There are two kinds of false housing information published online: the first is the false information published by real estate agents to attract the attention of renters. This kind of housing is low in price, good in conditions and attractive, but when the renter calls for consultation, he will be told that the housing has been rented and enthusiastically recommend the remaining rental housing to you, which is the main purpose; The second category is a false description of the rental housing situation. For example, if you are far from the bus stop, you deliberately say that the transportation is convenient, the decoration is not good, and the home appliances are uneven and complete. The purpose is to trick the renter into actually looking at the house, hoping to persuade the renter who is tired of looking at the house to rent it.
At present, whether renting a house or buying a house, it has become a very common thing to find a house online. When many citizens rush to see the house, they often know that the house has been sold or the price has gone up, which makes them very hurt. In fact, this is likely to encounter "fake housing". The reporter learned that the proliferation of fake houses is now related to the fierce competition in the real estate intermediary industry. In recent years, with the rapid increase in the number of real estate agents in the island city, some small and medium-sized real estate agents will publish online as soon as they receive the entrustment from sellers to attract buyers, and some websites also lack the corresponding audit mechanism.
A few days ago, the reporter searched through a website on the grounds that he wanted to rent a house. Just one day after the news was sent out, many people contacted reporters, including the landlord himself and the intermediary company. The customer service manager of an intermediary company told the reporter that he had a house in Guanyin Bridge to rent, which was not only well decorated, but also inexpensive. The reporter then contacted the house.
After a while, he told reporters that the house just mentioned had been rented out, and now there is only another one that is a little more expensive, asking reporters if they want to rent it. The reporter has repeatedly investigated and found that there are many similar situations, accounting for almost one-third of the rental information on this website. In order to attract the attention of renters, real estate agents release houses at low prices. But when the renter calls for advice, he will be told that the house has been rented out and enthusiastically recommend the rest of the house.
There are a lot of false housing information in the online rental scam, and some housing information that is obviously lower than the market price may be extremely false. The owner of the rental house must pay attention not to be confused by this false information of the intermediary.
